Firelands Parents Learn Knife Skills

Firelands Head Start parents enhanced their kitchen skills at their last parent meeting. Chef Brittany Reilly taught knife skills and shared some new recipes as well. Reilly’s business “In the Kitchen with Britt” offers cooking classes and prepared meals. “We made two delicious and healthy dips that everyone agreed their families will enjoy,” said Site Administrator Pam Caruso. “We also talked about what’s going on in our classroom and with our ‘school family.’” “Chef Brittany was very knowledgeable at what she was presenting,” said parent Stacy Hall, adding it was the best parent meeting she had ever attended. Ashley Farrell agreed: “She was really friendly and taught me a new skill. Her instructions were clear and easy and made an easy recipe that was healthier than store brands.”
